After going through six different trials, the cancer continues to spread. Noah is an angel and we are blessed to have him in our lives.

Pumpkin Carving! :)



Bryan, Erika and I did some pumpkin carving on Friday night. Bryan and I had bought 2 large pumpkins for mine and his, and two smaller ones for Sampson and Boston. This is the first year that I have decided to do a pattern out of the pattern book! It actually came out pretty good for my first time. Erika and I carved the pups pumpkins - Bostons is a paw print & Sampson's is a bone. Bryan did his pumpkin with the skateboard brand, Flip! It looks pretty cool.



My mom and I went and bought some stuff to make our own Halloween Wreaths! This is how my turned out! I love it, so cool and spooky! It hangs inside of my apartment because I don't trust people not to steal it outside, plus I don't want the weather ruining it! :) & it cost under $10 to make!

Wow! It has been a long time ...

I definitely have been missing my blogging lately. I really need to catch everyone up on whats going on in the world of me! First off, Bryan and I are eng
aged, yay!!!! He proposed to me a few weeks ago, and we are in the process of picking a date and all of that good, fun stuff! Secondly, Bryan is now working at Radio Shack & we are still in the apartment. Thats pretty much all thats going on in the life if Bryan and Lex. I am still in school, just finished my Geography class and getting ready to start my Psychology class. I am doing really well in all of my classes.

Two Part Post


The stadium was OVER filled, people had to stand and watch from behind the bleachers.
This is the other side of the stadium. Insane how many people come!
This is the band Skillet performing.
It was there 20th Year Anniversary of Harvest.
This is the stage during the day. Its awesome! Love the colors!
The band Relient K
Bryan and I being goofy
Just smiling :)

The Harvest Crusade couldn't have came at a better time this year! As most of you probably already know, Bryan resigned from his job at Datatronics. Sadly, there were just too many problems going on with Nate, and Bryan just couldn't handle it any longer. We are definitely so much happier (even with im being unemployed at the moment) and we know that everything is going to work itself out and that everything happens for a reason. Anyways, because Bryan is not working right now we have been trying to save our money and not spend anything. So in doing so, we were really contemplating spending the gas to go to Harvest. After much consideration, we finally decided that we definitely need to go because no matter how much gas it takes to get there, we need God the most right now.

Man am I glad that we went. It was absolutely amazing. We got there 2 hours early so that we could get a good spot in line, which paid off because we were a few rows closer then we were the last couple of years. Two of our favorite Christian bands played this year, Relient K and Skillet. Their lives performances were awesome! Greg Lauries message really opened my eyes some more, and helped me to see that God loves us no matter what we are going through. I have never prayed so much in my life, as I did last night. It was amazing and I am so happy with our decision to go.

We have already decided on what our plan of action is going to be now that Bryan is unemployed. We are breaking our lease here at the apartment and we are moving back in with my parents for the time being. Bryan is almost 100% sure that he will be getting his job at McDonalds back, but he is also going to be applying at other places such as Geek Squad. He will also be getting some more hours at his other job, The Wheelhouse, which will be nice because he loves working there. After Bryan establishes some work history with a new company, we will begin to look at buying a house again. For now though, my parents will be helping us and we will be helping them... which is what family is all about. I am so thankful to have such a wonderful family that cares so much about me, and that I know would do anything for me... and vice versa. I am so thankful that Bryan is finally happy and that he no longer has to work somewhere he does not enjoy. I am so thankful for life in general. Even though things are tough right now, I know we will get through them with the help of God and our families.

Little behind...Sorry!




Friday night of my moms birthday weekend, my dad had asked Bryan and I if we could come over and hang out with the girls while he took my mom to dinner. Of course I loved this idea, so I agreed :) We brought her her gifts that night, and then her and my dad took off for "Love Boat" a very nice, yummy sushi restaurant. While they were out on their date, we decided to have a Jurassic Park Marathon with the girls, we got through 2 of 3. It was fun. My mom received 3 of the Sookie Stackhouse books (the ones of the True Blood series), some Victorias Secret Perfume, Lotion and Body Spray, my dad got her some new tennis shoes and my sisters made her cards :)

Saturday, Grandma took my mom to Sams Club to pick up some stuff to get for "Birthday Taco Night." Bryan and I got to my parents house at around 2:30pm. We had delicious tacos, played SkipBo, and just talked and hung out. Danielle and the kids came over around 7:30 to spend some time with my mom for a bit, they left around 10pm.

To finish up my moms birthday weekend, we decided to take advantage of our Sea World passes. Bryan has just recently got his, so this was his first time there since he was little. Which made it even cooler, since we were celebrating my moms birthday and showing Bryan around :) We did the basic stuff, Shamu show, dolphin show, manatees, etc. It was really fun and it was a beautiful day! It really made my moms birthday weekend super special.

Needless to say, my moms birthday weekend was very special and I know that she enjoyed herself very much! Sadly, we totally didn't take any pictures on Friday or Saturday. And my moms was the camera girl on Sunday, so we have no pictures of the birthday girl on her birthday weekend. Sorry mama! :(
